In 1999, Hume became one of the most representative artist in UK and "an magnificent artist in Great Britain," by showing his work in the Venice Biennale. Hume painted a women and animals on aluminum with a line to simplify the work. Hume developed a unique visual language by using a simple shape with thick bold lines. His motif was to paint recognizable shape of birds and flowers, but these shapes were often flattened or cracks occurred, and these happenings made his painting awkwardly recombinant.
